WHERE TO BUY

Streamline your electrical and data installations with the nVent GARDNER BENDER 79-201 Poly-Gel Cable-Pulling Lubricant. This high-performance, water-based blue gel is specifically engineered to reduce friction during the installation of power, control, and fiber-optic cables. Whether you are working with low-density polyethylene, polyurethane, or semi-conducting jackets, this formula provides a smooth glide through all types of conduit. Safety and ease of use are at the core of this formula. It is non-toxic, non-corrosive, and non-staining, ensuring it won't damage surfaces or harm the user. With a neutral pH of 7.2 - 8.2 and a thick viscosity (70,000 - 110,000 cps. at 10 rpm), it clings effectively to cables to minimize resistance. One of its standout features is its drying property: it dries to a clear, non-conductive semi-fluid film. This ensures that cables remain easy to handle, strip, and terminate long after the pull is complete, without the mess of hardened or gummed-up residue. Built for the professional job site, the 79-201 is workable over a wide temperature range of 28°F to 200°F. The 1 qt. squeeze bottle (weighing 2.5 lbs) allows for precise manual application or can be used with a pump for larger projects. With an indefinite shelf life and a commitment to quality, nVent GARDNER BENDER ensures that your wire-pulling equipment is always ready for the task. Upgrade your toolkit with a lubricant that offers superior protection for your cable investment and simplifies the most challenging conduit runs.
